Fatty Liver Posted February 6, 2022 Report Share Posted February 6, 2022 (edited) 9 hours ago, Jesse said: Brady is clearly weighing offers. The fact that he hasn;t signed yet worries me. If Brady goes elsewhere so be it, they've signed Johnny and can use whatevers left over to sign Harris to share the load. In the age of 1 year contract it's not a big deal to lose a player for a year or two, if Brady decides he wants to return he only has to wait one or two years for another opportunity to negotiate a deal with Walters. By that time Harris will be out of the picture. Edited February 7, 2022 by Fatty Liver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noeller Posted February 6, 2022 Report Share Posted February 6, 2022 I wonder if they have confidence in Johnny August to be the RB1 on the chart with Borsa backing him up?

Naturally guys are going to want starter carries and we have 3 starters vying for touches for 1.5 running backs Side note- whatever happened to that tall canadian receiver that we drafted that got an nfl look? He was talked about a lot as being a game breaker one day but I haven't heard anything about him or can remember his name. He may have had an attitude problem ?

Amusing on Riderfans they think the 260k for Duke is a good deal hahah...just eating up that "close to 300k" rumour....not sure who woulda offered that...and that obviously wasn't hard money...the fact the Rider deal specified "hard" money tells me he in position to make more than 260k which makes that even more laughable Don't forget LaFrance got like 155k on the strength of 1 game. Never underestimate the league over paying a ni that could start. Brandon and Jesse 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cripes I never imagined losing both Harris and Olly, but maybe?? Brady's got it pretty sweet here. He had a couple decent games last year but hasnt done a whole heck of a lot. Augustine has produced every time he's gotten the chance. If he's willing to leave his hometown team after back to back Grey Cups over a few extra bucks, then see ya bro.

Yup...his absence this yr wouldn't be the difference of us being legit contender...or bottom dweller...and he can always resign back next yr and be a JABO duo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted February 6, 2022 Report Share Posted February 6, 2022 (edited) What I don't understand is how some media...and rider fans say/think Williams came back and was tremendous...4 games..17 receptions...285 yards and 1 td...148 of the yards came in 1 game against an esks team that had checked out...and 9 receptions and 163 yards and 1 td in playoffs..the TD due to Taylor slipping and most the yards from that...and the 34 yard non catch..hardly a 260k difference maker Edited February 6, 2022 by Booch Tracker, TrueBlue4ever, wbbfan and 1 other 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's kinda a squewed metric to base a reciever on tho...sure u can average and look at a pace...but not true indication...take out his one game he actually did anything and he on a pace for just over 800 for zero TD's...sure he's good...or was...but didn't light nothing up by any means...and fact of matter...he or any receiver for that matter not worth that dollar figure Tracker and Noeller 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s like taking Lawler’s big game in BC out of the equation and saying he was the 5th best receiver last year. Williams came in in limited time and over that time put up numbers that would put him right around the top of the league pro-rated over a full season last year. When he left in 2018 he was the top receiver in the league. He can justify being the highest paid receiver, whether 260,000 is appropriate is up for debate but that is the market rate right now given Whitehead’s contract and Lawler’s offer, as well as Derel Walker’s past contracts.

And Exactly true....hence he (KL) not worth 250k...and 2018 was 4 yrs ago..that's a long time in football....if u wanna use stats to figure out an avg generally take the highest and lowest out..Lawler then averages just under 1300 yards...Spitty eye gouger 982...I included his playoff games to give a larger sample size....until he puts up 2018 numbers highly overated and overpayed...and not just bashing cause he a rider..I will say same for Lawler if he doesn't put up better than last yr number and be a true diff maker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweep the leg Posted February 7, 2022 Report Share Posted February 7, 2022 (edited) Sounds like Darvin Adams is coming back. Knuckles just tweeted it. Edit: not in so many words I guess, but alluded to it. I also read Alby re-signed, but I don't remember hearing about that.
